Andreas,
It must come with a free small car...Hi, Hi. Icom will have a problem
selling it for even $2000.  Once again,
The manufacturer's don't listen to the Ham crowd. Did anyone ask for this
radio?  Maybe they donate $3000 to AMSAT for an HEO bird for every one sold?
What a fund raiser that would be. Oh well, we can wish and fun about it.
Let's hope Yaesu and Kenwood get a lesson here. 
73,
Dee, NB2F  (Icom user)

The IC-9100 is far from being a bargain - one can find pristine IC-910's for
around $900, or $1500 with the 1.2 GHz module installed. In my case, I have
plenty of HF radios, so I just needed to add UHF and VHF. A TS-2000 goes
from $1600 to $2000 ...
